The Finest Hours: The True Story of the U.S. Coast Guard's Most Daring Sea Rescue
by Michael J. Tougias
My sister and I finally finished listening to this. We were on a longish road trip and I decided it was time to force her into finishing.
I really enjoy the history of this and learning more about the Coast Guard and some of the people who have served, but the way the story was told didn't work well for me. It might have worked better if I had been reading the physical version, but I still think the way it was structured was odd.
Sometimes it seems that authors of historical texts throw in stories that aren't that relevant to the main story they are trying to tell, which makes the book feel bogged down and sluggish. The structure was also odd, because it jumped back and forth between events too much for my liking. Again, reading it physically may have helped with some of that.
I enjoyed the history and learning more about these events, which I find fascinating, but I didn't love the way it was told. I would recommend it if you are interested in history and want to learn more about the events covered here, which are very inspiring.
